Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Seeing the King is Unfavorable (2)
Before the game, although the South Korean team coach Kim Ho-kun was relatively humble, the team's number one star Park Ji-sung was not very polite. Under the inducement of a Korean reporter, he even said "Wang Ai is just lucky", which also aroused the anger of the Korean team.
The dissatisfaction of the Chinese players. After the Chinese reporter conveyed this statement before the game in the evening, Wang Ai's number one teammate Qu Bo said in an interview: "Park Ji-sung is not worthy of being compared with Xiao Wang."
Team captain Dewey also rarely said: "...he is talking nonsense." Xu Liang, who is from Liaoning like Wang Ai and is also good at free kicks, even said: "I will give Park Ji-sung a good look."
When his teammates stood up and yelled at Park Ji-sung from a distance, Wang Ai smiled and waved his hands, refusing to be interviewed, showing his true feelings on the field.
For this game, more than 5,000 domestic fans came as usual. Red flags were waving in the stands, and each fan had a small national flag sticker on their face. When Wang Ai looked at them, he immediately waved his arms.
The Olympic team had some liquid food at four o'clock in the afternoon. The main ingredient was milk, which was given by Schubert. The game started at six o'clock in the evening, so the dinner time could only be moved to after the game. This was also a great improvement for the Olympic team.
.In the past, if I encountered a game of this kind of time, I usually skipped meals and drank a little glucose to deal with it. But with liquid food, there is no burden on the gastrointestinal tract. You don’t even pee when you sweat, and it does not affect your exercise ability. At the same time,
The energy is still enough.
At six o'clock in the evening, at the Sangam Stadium where the temperature had dropped to subzero, the Chinese team took a step forward to compete in the Olympic Games for the seventh time.
In this competition, the three "foreign players" Wang Ai, Qu Bo, and Zong Lei were all put on the bench. One was because it would be difficult for the three of them to travel back and forth, and the other was because Lao Shen wanted to see the quality of his domestic disciples.
When it comes to winning, at least keeping a tie, Lao Shen is still very confident.
The course of the game was as expected by Lao Shen. Throughout the first half, the Korean team was suppressed by the Chinese team's tactics without any outstanding performance. Moreover, judging from the scene, the Chinese team was still slightly ahead. The first shot was completed by captain Dewey.
, received Xu Liang's free kick and rushed to attack the goal. Unfortunately, although he grabbed the first point, he was hit by South Korean defender Park Yong-ho in the air and missed the target.
Wang Ai sat between assistant coach Sun Chengyao and Qu Bo, watching the game while "live commentary" with Qu Bo. In terms of technical content, they are much higher than the CCTV presenters. Wang Ai is not counted. Qu Bo has been
After going abroad and opening my eyes, my ability to understand the game has also skyrocketed.
"Hey, Yu Tao is a bit reckless now." No. 16 Yu Tao was intercepted in the frontcourt and then knocked down Jin Douxuan. Qu Bo couldn't help but said with regret.
Wang Ai's eyes were wandering. He didn't pay much attention to the performance of individual players. He was analyzing the overall organization of the Chinese team. Qu Bo finished speaking for a long time before he spoke: "Why can't we always hold the ball in the frontcourt? We rely too much on set kicks."
Our opponent has seen through our tactics. There is no surprise, no trump card, and no backhand in our tactics."
"Well..." Qu Bo fell silent. Wang Ai dared to confront Lao Shen face to face. After that, he would do whatever he had to do. Lao Shen should like him and still like him. Even behind his back, he did not dare to complain about Shen Xiangfu. Sun Chengyao took over the topic: "Our game is based on defense, so you see, our defense is pretty good. That No. 21, it's been almost half an hour, has nothing to show, and we are looking down on it, so that's it." That’s it.”
Wang Ai curled his lips. He didn't want to argue with anyone, but he couldn't help it and said concisely: "Only those who are not afraid of death are qualified to live."
Sun Chengyao smiled and ignored Wang Ai's rebuttal. Football matches are always based on results anyway.
The people paying attention to this game are far more than the thousands of Chinese in Seoul. There are also countless people in China watching the TV. Many of them have also come to similar conclusions as Wang Ai, such as returning to Chongming Island and determined to break the boat. Xu Genbao.
The old coach was originally in a meeting, and someone turned on the TV over there, so he just said nothing about "I won't watch the Chinese team's game"...Liu Shangjie, who came back with him, knew his master's habit of being sharp-tongued and heart-warming. .
"Oh, why is An Qi always so reckless?" In the 40th minute of the first half, An Qi attacked rashly and was in danger in front of the goal. Fortunately, An Qi made up for it in the end and hugged the football after falling to the ground. Xu Genbao then turned to face Gu Chao The direction of the young goalkeeper said: "The goalkeeper should be lively, but not too lively. Even if you make ten wonderful saves, you can't save even one miss. Although goalkeepers who are too lively will often have world-class saving performances, they will only make a few mistakes in a row." Once, everything is over. We have no shortage of lively goalkeepers in China, such as Ou Chuliang, Liu Jiansheng, and An Qi. There are also overseas goalkeepers, such as that crazy Higuita, but as long as there is a choice, the head coach will not use them. .Who went to South Korea for the World Cup the year before last? Isn’t that silly, big, black and thick Jiang Jin? You must remember that on the goal line, the error tolerance rate is zero."
After talking about the goalkeeper, Xu Genbao turned his head and looked at the game a few more times. After the halftime break, he said to Liu Shangjie and other assistants: "The tactics of this Olympic team are too conservative. They always want to maintain a tie and win. From the game strategy, there seems to be no problem. But do you know what someone would say? I went to Germany, and then a little bastard told me that it was worthless, and said that only those who are not afraid of death are qualified to live. It has been almost a year since I returned to China, and this sentence I still remember his words and his expression at that time. I thought about it over and over again and felt that what this bastard said was really reasonable. He always wants to defend, can he hold it? This is like the goalkeeper I just said, can he? One or two wonderful saves does not mean that the whole game will be successful. If you can't fight out and are beaten hard, you will always be beaten to the ground. Just watch, something will happen in the second half of this game."
His assistants did not ask who the "little bastard" was. Except for Wang Ai, who was often scanned by live cameras on TV, who else would dare to talk to Marshal Xu like that?
The kickoff came back at 15 minutes. The Chinese team's physical fitness declined. The Korean team gradually reversed the situation. The Chinese team's defensive system in the midfield and backcourt began to show loopholes, and the problem of the frontcourt players not being able to hold the ball was becoming more and more serious, and they were more inclined to Xu Liang, who was not interested in attacking, ran back and forth in vain many times. As soon as he stepped forward, he lost the ball in front of him and had to run back again.
The passive situation of the game made even Lao Shen unable to sit still. In the 10th minute of the second half, Lao Shen replaced Wu Pingfeng, who had excellent footwork skills. The situation improved slightly, but unfortunately he could hold the ball, but could not pass it.
After a few minutes, Lao Shen sent on pure forward Cao Ming to once again strengthen the frontcourt.
Attack ability.
This time the substitutions were more effective. The Chinese team's weak frontcourt became tougher, and the game slowly returned to a state of balance.
